- Abstract
- Seemingly visual concepts become tangible through text and touch and bring the excitement of the constellations, comets, meteor showers, and nebulae down to earth and onto the page. Learn ancient legends about the stars; the arrangement of famous star patterns; the phases of solar and lunar eclipses; interesting facts about the major planets and Pluto; what comets and meteors are and where they originate; the life cycle of a star; the impact and legacy of the early astronomers. This edition includes a handsome hardcover book in both large print and braille, and is interspersed with 19 carefully-rendered tactile illustrations by Creative Adaptations for Learning (CAL) — as well as a companion print volume with facsimiles of the tactile illustrations for sighted readers.
